Our booming economy & recent trade deals are a big deal for #Iowa, but there’s more to do.
Excited to hear about all this & more during the #SOTU tonight. It’s time to get back to the people’s business. pic.twitter.com/7f0rRdWR46

I’ve worked for years to improve research & prevention of traumatic brain injuries—or TBIs.
After reports of 50+ servicemembers suffering from TBIs as a result of the Iranian-led strike on the Ain al-Asad air base, I’m calling for answers from the DoD:

The Presidential Election Campaign Fund is a welfare program for politicians that’s doing nothing else but ballooning our deficit. My ELECT Act would end this fund and redirect the money towards tackling our debt. #MakeEmSqueal

In my meeting with Assistant Secretary James this week, I made it clear how important the Mississippi River dredging project was for Iowa, and I hope to see the Army Corps prioritize it in 2020. Learn more about the project’s impact on Iowa farmers:

As a combat veteran, I commend the Rangers who provided lifesaving care to their teammates while under direct enemy fire. This Ranger-pioneered technique could transform how we treat battlefield casualties. #RLTW! @USASOCNews @USSOCOM @USArmy

The bipartisan support for my bill demonstrates just how important & commonsense it is. As a combat veteran, I understand firsthand the need to provide our female servicemembers with proper equipment.

Good news for our veterans 🇺🇸

While the Pentagon’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response program is empowering cadets to report and seek restorative care, the continued increase in reported incidents points to a disturbing trend.

Combating human trafficking is an effort we all support. I’m committed to working with all levels of gov’t and partnering with industry leaders—like the hospitality leaders in Iowa I met with in August—to end it. pic.twitter.com/W7BDk1kxIt

(1/2) Not only does the illegal drug trade wreak havoc across Iowa’s rural communities, our state also wrestles with the tragic scourge of human trafficking.
Combatting this egregious form of modern day slavery is going to take an all-of-the-above approach.

I heard from these same farmers on my #99CountyTour for over a year about the need for the #USMCA. And it was their voices I relayed to my colleagues to get this trade agreement over the finish line. Thanks to @realdonaldtrump, #USMCA is now a win for our state. twitter.com/whohd/status/1…

Whether at a VA facility in Iowa or anywhere across the country, our vets should be receiving the best care possible. I’m thrilled to see my bipartisan bill advance in the Senate, which would ensure those treating our nation’s vets are thoroughly vetted.
